RIDING LYNX
My rides for the season are BoonDocker RE 3700 and DS 3900. The RE 3700 is the one I ride most – I love to jump and do other tricks with that. It is a very playful sled for my type of riding and it also holds up very well in that kind of use. I use the DS 3900 more for deep snow. It is also a very playful machine and it takes me wherever I want! Maybe I enjoy most the spring riding. Good weather, nice people, build some jumps and just having a good time with friends. What else you need? For me it is such a pleasure to be part of the Lynx team. It has opened a lot of doors for me and I feel the community very familiar. It just couldn’t be more happy with that!

STARTING OUT
I have always been around sleds since I was born. I was around 13 when I got my first sled and since that snowmobiling has been the hobby I love most. 2016 was a kind of turning point when I met Andreas Bergmark first time and we started to ride a lot together. After that I’ve been focused more on jumping.

LIVING SISU
Backflip is mentally very hard trick and that asks sisu. Nothing beats the feeling when you get adrenaline boost when hitting a big jump. I love challenges.

FAST FACTS

ON THE PLAYLIST

Literally could be anything from Metallica, to the Black Keys or even Notorious B.I.G

MUST-HAVES ON A SLED TRIP

A tiny lightweight stove. The whole thing is the size of a coffee cup and weighs almost nothing. I’ve spent enough nights on the mountain to understand that hypothermia really can be your worst enemy.
